I have just had to rewire a trailer board but I cannot remember which wire goes to which connection on the brake/side light bulb.
The bulb is a 6w/18w (or something like that).
Is the brake 6w and the side 18w or vice versa ??.
boyoboyo ( snipped-for-privacy@yahoo.com) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :
5w/21w.
Think about it briefly.
You're driving along at night, You have your lights on, so the tail lights are lit. You brake.
Do you want the brake light to be brighter than the tail light - and therefore visible over it - or dimmer - and therefore make no real visible difference?
Given that brake lights are brighter than side lights and more watts means more light I'd go with the "vice versa" :)
Peter.
I know which one you are...
